2.5 Safety Regulations
The DecoRad® Floormate meets the fundamental safety and health demands of the
relevant guidelines of the European Community. However, in case of inexpert or careless
use, dangerous situations may still arise.
Stay alert for dangerous situations!
2.6 UV radiation
Ultraviolet radiation (or UV) is a proven process to disinfect water, air and solid surfaces
which have been contaminated with micro-organisms. In addition to this, UV radiation is
well-known for its application as a catalyst in drying processes. The effects of UV as a
disinfectant have been extensively documented in scientific research.
UV radiation is a mixture of radiation of various wavelengths. In a rainbow, the visible part
of the UV radiation is ordered according to the length of the waves. Progressing from
purple to red, the waves become increasingly longer. The infrared, with a wavelength
longer than that of red, is not visible but can be felt as (solar) heat. The ultraviolet or UV
has a wavelength shorter than that of purple. This part of the UV radiation is not visible as
well.
Most of the UV radiation we get comes through sunlight. Not all UV radiation reaches the
earth: a part is blocked by the ozone layer.

User Manual Floormate –V. 2.7 B/C

2.7 Risks of UV Radiation
Both UVA and UVB can damage cells and genetic material, thus leading to skin cancer.
UVB poses the greater risk here. Even though scientists used to think that UVA was not
harmful, newer research has proven that UVA contributes 10 to 20 percent to the cancer
risk.
In order to protect itself against damage to genetic material, the skin tries to thicken itself
(after UVB exposure). Pigment cells create the substance melanin, which gives the skin a
brown colour. This means that when the skin tans, it has already been damaged.
Because the ozone layer is becoming increasingly thinner due to environmental pollution,
less UV radiation is absorbed, thus leading to an increase of skin cancer occurrences.
In addition, the skin can burn under influence of UVA and UVB radiation. Burning is
accompanied by redness and in serious cases tremors, blisters, nausea and fever. In the
long term the skin will lose its elasticity, suffer from accelerated aging and will remain
sensitive for itching, pimples, etc.
Ultraviolet light can damage skin and eyes.
Wear the facial shield, protective clothes and gloves.
As a user, never look directly into a switched-on lamp.
Certain types of medication and cosmetics can increase sensitivity.
